Flabbergasted

I'm flabbergasted to see that Blog has had over a million page views this month.  That astounds me since there have only been ten million page views since I set up the Chilly Hollow Needlepoint Adventure, probably in the summer of 2009.  I was blogging for at least two years before that at Yahoo but they discontinued their free blogging software and I had to find a new home here at Google's Blogger.

All I can say is thanks, and keep needlepointing!

Laid Filling Stitches: The Movie

The Wool and the Floss just posted a short video demonstrating how to do laid fillings.  It sounds complicated and looks elegant but it is quick and easy even if a laying tool helps you put the first layer of stitches on smoothly.

If you are intrigued and want a book full of different laid filling stitch diagrams, look for Jean Taggert's book, Laid Fillings for Even Weave Fabrics.
